West Ham United are exploring the possibility of signing Brazilian striker Yuri Alberto from Corinthians.
The Hammers have renewed their interest in the 23-year-old, who has impressed in the Brazilian league with his goal-scoring prowess. With the transfer window nearing its last month, West Ham are actively seeking to bolster their attacking options after shortcomings have been only too obvious in pre-season.
Corinthians are open to selling Alberto, with multiple clubs expressing interest in the forward. Everton and an unnamed Saudi Arabian club have also been linked with the Brazilian.
While West Ham face competition for the striker’s signature, we are prepared to make an official offer to secure his services.
Bolavip Brasil claim the Hammers are ‘ready to make the first official offer’ for the Brazil international. There’s no mention of the fee they are ready to propose or Corinthians’ demands to sanction his sale
The addition of Alberto would provide a much-needed boost to West Ham’s attacking options, as the club continues to search for a reliable goalscorer to lead the line. Certainly with Tim Steidten remaining across the Atlantic after the two Florida friendlies, it would follow that more work is to be done in the South America market.
Wasn’t there a saga for this guy when we tried to sign him last year?
And it fell flat on its face.
Anything to do with Brazilians seems to be a problem.
If Paqueta and Emerson had a baby it would grow up to be Yuri Alberta
Yuri is the guy for WHU. Got it all, pace, brain, attitude and age.
Should bust everything seen before to land him IMO.
Go hammers, forget the dross and over priced wannabes.
